Igloo

Here's another fantastic design from Richard Horden and his students. Next time you're traveling to the Antarctic (OK, or the snow…), wouldn't it be great to bring something like this? This cool mobile home, m_igloo, is only a prototype, but we think it's a great idea. It may look tiny but has enough room to sleep two. Inspired by tobogganing penguins, ski-doos and snow mobiles, the m_igloo was created by two of Horden's students, Ingrid Galitzdorfer and Christina Muller. As they say, 'The penguin has lived successfully in the Antarctic for millions of years, humans relatively uncomfortably for only 100!’ They have a good point.
